The Charleston, Cincinnati and
Chicago Railroad.

The following editorial appeared in
the Charleston S. c., NewS e. Courier
of the lst inst.
The public have heard great deal
about the Charleston, Cincinnati and
Chicago Railroad, and know with sat
isfaction, especially in Charleston,
that work is being pushed along the
line from Camden to Blacks and that
considerable section OF the road be-
yond Blacks is in operation. Yet
there is very little understanding of
what the road promises, and what it
can be expected to effect. The new
highway to the West well deserves to
be better known, and will be found to
improve steadily on acquaintance.
Designed and projected to form the
shortest line between Charleston and
the Ohio River, the "Three C's Rail.
road" as it is popularly called, com.
mences at Ashland, KY, on the Ohio
River, follows the valley OF the Big
Sandy River to the boundry line OF

I'IAe Captured Flags.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-hurry over
the captared battle flags has had the
result of directing the official atten.
ton in that direction, and it is now
stated that there are upwards of 1000
various banners in the flag room Of
the War Department OF these near
ly 600 are flags that were captured du-
ring the rebellion, two hundred or
more being Federal banners found in
Richmond after the evacuation.
Many OF these captured from the
Southern troops are made of women's
petticoats and are badly eaten by
mice and moth The blues have ia
died into white and the reds into pink
The stars have dropped out, and when
unfurled little bits tall to the floor or
crumble in the hand. OF the remain
der the majority are Federal flags, us
ually regimental colors, which were
turned over to the department by the
various State authorities.
The largest flag in the lot is the
garrison flag of Fort Tylor, west Point,
recaptured by the First Wisconsin,
Second Indiana and Seventh Ken
tuckey regimsnts The smallest is n
tiny guidon taken from the first Irish
Brigade, or Sixty-ninth New York in
that brigade. Flag No. 236 is Union
flag, "made by Mrs. McEwen, Aoated
from her house at the time the city
of Nashville, Tenn. was in possession of
the South, and was found still waving
there when Genaral Buell's army took
the city" The flag about which there
is perhaps most curiosity is small
black flag having single white star
in the centre, and said by the late
General Myer to be a ebel signal flag,
made black to show clearly against a
bright sky. A flag captured from
General Longstreet's Corps had these
remarks on paper pasted on the staff
"Mr, Yankee, you will please turn
this flag, a staff and shoulder belt oyet
to the Ninth Maine; was captured al
st. Gilmore on 29th October, 1864, by
Third Forks Regt, VOL" (Signed)

more desirable.
Besides this immense traffic, howev-
er, the "Three C's" will have the bust
ness that will naturally flow to it from
the rich and rapidly developing coun-
try through which it will run. The
largest forests of hard wood IN Ameri-
ca lie along its line, and the demand
for these woods is increasing every
year. Leaving all other kinds of busi-
ness out of consideration, it has been
estimated by railroad men and lum-
Der men OF large experience, who have
prospected along the route, that the
freights upon lumber alone will pay
the interest on the bonds for years af-
ter the completion of the road.
1t must be borne in mind, by the
way, that the "Three C's Railroad" is
not all on paper alone. The entire
line from Cincinnati to Ashland is un-
der contract. From Ashland, south,
fifty miles are completed, and the rest
OF the line to the State line of Virgin
ia is under construction and is being
pushed as rapidly as practicable. 1t
is expected that one hundred and fifty
miles OF this part of the road will be
completed and running by January,
1888. Forty-five miles of the road be-
tween Blacks and Marion, North
Carolina, are already completed and
in operation, and it is expected that
the whole road from Camden to
Blacks will be open for business by
February l, or March l, at the latest,
the contractors having experienced
some unavoidable delay" All togeth-
er, it is stated, two hundred and twen-
ty-fve miles of new road will be COM
pleted by the end of the year. An
immense amount of money is requir-
ed OF course, to conduct the work on
so liberal scale and at so many
points at once, and that it is being so
conducted is the best evidence that
can be given of the faith OF capi-
talists in the success of the line.
We have given few of the facts
which have induced the road to press
its construction with so much vigor.
A great many more similar facts
might be added, but enough has been
told to show how important the un-
dertaking appears in the minds of
those who are best informed as to its
merits. Its overwhelming success is
as near to being assured as that Of
any scheme which has not yet been
put to the test of experience, and, if it
meets only part Of the expectations
entertained in regard to it, Charles
ton and South Carolina will still have
abundant reason to bless the intelli-
gence and energy that realize the
dream of so many years, and open the
way fIom the Lakes to the Sea.

leading characters in the countrys
history who started as printers devils.
Forfear you dislike to show your ignor-
ance 10y asking any one, and are too
indolent to study history to find them,
we will give you short list of ex-dey-
lis of the printing Office. Did you ev-
er hear of Benjamin Franklin? Ben
was once a printers devil. He was
also one of the signers of the Declara-
ton of independence. Hannibal Ham
lin, Vice President under Lincoln
was once a printers poor devil.
Schuyler Colfax, who has been Speak
er of of the House Of Representatives
for years was nothing but devil in
Il printing office" at one time. Hor-
ace Greedy, who was one of the first
journalists on this continent, and eX-
Congressman, was u printers devil.
Ex-senator Simon Cameron, OF Penn
sylvania, was a "devil," Thurlow
Weed, one OF the wealthiest and most
influential men in New York, and edi-
tor OF the Commercial AduertiSer, was a
penniless "devil" in a printing Office.
Ex-senator Ross, of Kansas, commenc-
ed his successful career as a printers
devil. Two-thirds of the editors in
the United States were once printers
devils. Permit us to tell you that the
men who once did duty as printers,
have done more to advance the inter-
est and sustain the good name of
Am erica, than any other class.

Murder in Hancock,

To the Knoxville Tribune.
LEE VALLEY, June 27.-And still the
day OF murder is not passed. Yester-
day, Sunday, at Stony Gap, about five
miles south OF Sneedville, crowd of
people had gathered to have sing
ing. Deputy Sheriff Green in walking
around during recess spied pistol in
the pocket OF "Bill" Hobbs and made
an attempt to arrest him-when
Greene attempted the arrest Hobbs
jerked pistol from his pocket and shot
him twice through the body, one ball
passing through just below the heart,
the other one still lower down. As
soon as his pistol was empty lie start
ed to run when Green fired two shots
at him, one taking effect in his left
shoulder and the other through his
back, They are both in a dangerous
condition. 1t is not thought that
either of them will get well. Hobb:
is said to be bad man. He shot 8
man by the name of Thompson ovel
year ago.
1t is not thought that Green will live
through the day--Hobbs can't live
but a short time.

TEMPERANCE POINTERS.
Wharf.-The Amendment Means.

To prohibit the manufacture and
sale in Tennessee of all alcoholic IL
Quors to be used as a beverage. Here
it is:
Sec. Is. No persons shall manufac-
ture for sale or sell, keep for sale, as Il
beverage, any intoxicating liquor
whatever including wine, ale, and beer,
The General Assembly shall by law
prescribe regulations for the enforce
ment OF the prohibition herein con-
tained, and shall thereby provide
suitable penalties for the violation of
the provisions hereof.
viii you vote for it?
Are you sorry for found fathers and
mothers who see their darling boys
going down to destruction? In nine
ty-nine cases in the hundred of the
ruin OF young men, intoxicating
drinks are the chief means Of that ruin,
and the prohibition OF the liquor traf-
fic would prevent it.
Do the poor over-worked, ,sickly, suf-
terlng wives excite your compassion?
Do the scantily clad and gutter-loving
children awaken your sympathy? Do
the tales OF wife-beating and, not rare
ly, wife-murder, excite your horror?
And do the aversion of these classes
to religion alarm you? All these
evils are brought on chiefly through
the use ofintoxicating drink, to which
they are tempted by liquor shops at
almostevery corner, and often three or
four in single block. Depend upon
it, the stopping of this internal traffic
would do more for the working class
es than any or all other kind OF benev-
olent legislation.
1t may be that it is the intemper-
ance of many of the higher classes, as
they are styled, or "frst families" or
upper ten," which most excites your
sympathy; and truly many Of them
have a skeleton-closet somewhere.
Even this class may be saved from most
OF their domestic woes by one word
prohibition.
Will you vote for it?
Is it Sabbath desecration that you
most bewail? Prohibition would do
more to prevent that than all other
preventive laws put together.
Will you vote for it?
Is it the thinneess of the attend
ance OF the greater part OF churches
that specially affect you? The same
answer comes up. Drinking habits
are at war with religion, and they con,
sumo the means necessary for decent
clothing, or for helping to support q
church. The most effectual way to
fill the churches with working-men
and their families is to prohibit the liq.
or traffic.

The Presid ent's Mail.

The mail at the White House all
goes through the hands OF the private
secretary. Probably not more than
twenty letters day, often less, reach
the President from the official mail.
The balance are sent to the depart
ments where they belong, or are dis
posed of as the secretary directs.
From the postmarks and other indica-
tions the secretary is enabled to judge
of the character of most of the letters,
and the great bulk of the mail is pass
ed over to stenographcr to open and
assort. All official letters going from
the White House are signed by the
private secretary.
MRS. CLEvELAND's OCCUPATIONS.
Mrs, Cleveland is in the receipt dali
ly of a voluminous personal mail.
Not little of this, strange as it may
seem, relates to public business, and
this is at once turned over to Col. La
mont. Many of the letters to Mrs,
Cleveland are of the most curious
character. She is impOrtuned for
money or other charity, for influence.
for offices, and is even asked to get
pensions for people. She is very fond
of reading and all the latest publica-
tions find their way to her table. She
has also a good many calls. 1t looks
as if every one who comes to Washing
ton wants to see Mrs. Cleveland, and
her afternoons and evenings are prin
cipally occupied with callers. She
driyes out every day, does her owr
shopping, and in the afternoon drives
is always accompanied by the Presi
dent if he can get away. Mrs. Cleye
land does not regard herself as a mu
sician, but her touch on the piano il
sweet and sympathetic, and the Press
ident takes delight in listening t.
her whenever he can. Both the Pres
ident and Mrs. Cleveland are devoted
to flowers, and are often to be fount
peeping in the Conservatives and dis
cussing botany with the head garden
er Mrs. Cleveland also finds time t,
